About the role

What you’ll do

  • Work closely with the rest of the team to evolve the Integrations platform to handle trillions of tuples across hundreds of different integrations.
  • Own the design, implementation, testing, monitoring, and optimization of integration connectors.
  • Work closely with both technical and non-technical cross-team stakeholders to get our data streams where they’ll have the biggest impact on the entire business.
  • Find creative, scalable, and durable solutions to tough data synchronization challenges spanning across our systems and our partners'.
  • Join our on-call and other rotations that share the load equally among the team.
  • Bring energy and creativity to our use of AI, our knowledge shares, retros, and other regular team growth activities.

About you

  • 5+ years of experience as a full-time backend engineer working on a SaaS product with a large data component.
  • Experience with distributed microservice architectures: reliable service design for autoscaling, RESTful service-to-service communication.
  • Experience with at least one compiled language (Golang preferred; Rust, Kotlin, Java, C++ also welcome).
  • Experience with at least one messaging system (Kafka, SQS, PubSub, RabbitMQ, etc.) at scale (1K/s+ message volumes).
  • Strong CS fundamentals: data types, algorithms, CPU/memory management, networking, internet architecture.
  • Experience with observability systems for microservice architectures: structured logging, tracing, custom metrics.
  • Design-driven: form a plan of attack and articulate it on paper before coding.
  • Comfortable with Postgres-flavor databases (indices, constraints, relational design; avoid stored procedures).
  • More comfortable on the command-line than in UIs.
  • Clear and concise communication with both technical and non-technical peers.
  • Idealistic but practical mindset.
